Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- 2 slices bacon
- 0.25 cup red bell pepper, diced
- 0.5 cup spinach, chopped
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the bacon. Cook until crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon and place on a paper towel to drain. Once cooled, chop into small pieces.
In the same skillet, retain 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease or add olive oil/butter. Add the diced bell pepper and sauté for about 2 minutes until it starts to soften.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for another minute until wilted. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread the eggs evenly. Cook without stirring until the edges begin to set, about 2 minutes.
Sprinkle the cheese evenly over one half of the omelet. Top with the bell pepper, spinach, bacon pieces, and green onions.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the center is set.
Gently slide the omelet onto a plate and serve hot.
